I have a J10 with 258. It has the low end cooling system and I would like to upgrade. My truck has the fixed 4 blade fan. Can I order a thermal fan clutch and new Fan and do this upgrade?
Here are the parts I was looking at. Thermal Fan Clutch: AC Delco 1580245
Still haven’t found a fan. Any recommendations? 17 inch or bigger I don’t know what the stock 258 cooling fan was.
I don’t think I need a fan shroud as I have never had a cooling problem. The reason I am looking at this upgrade is to gain a little horse power and most important to keep the snow and water from packing up in my engine housing. When I drive in deep snow the snow will pack around my alternator and all the way to my starter relay. This seems to short something as I see a big draw in the lights and on my Volt meter. (Swapped out Amp meter for Volt meter when cleaning up my dash)
